This is my coveted 1987 Corolla FX GT-Z model. I bought it in 2009 and have put just over 20k miles on it and have invested about $12,000 in mods, maintenence and customization. 


When i bought it in '09 the only mods were the engine and transmission swap. I have built this car specifically as a both track and streetable vehicle, perfect for Laguna Seca!!!

Car is SMOG/BAR legal in California!!! The header is custom but it still blows clean with the cat and all, if visual is a problem for you i have a local guy and can smog it for you so you wont have to worry. Car is fully legal everywhere else.

Things it could still use:
-powersteering pump, starting to whine a little bit but still works perfectly
-driver side cv joint is starting to click at full lock. i had replaced the torn boot two years ago but it has finally caught up
-Has a slow leak from the transmission
-could use new bushings all around
-Took off rear fender flares, originals are in good condition and are included in any sale of the vehicle. 


This car is now a CLASSIC at 26 years old! It starts every time, runs great, and is my daily driver at the moment, but as any older car it could still use some TLC as it is not completely restored. I have spent lots of time and money on the major things of this vehicle, all that really remains are details. Unless mentioned above all other parts are original. There are some paint blemishes, small dings and scratches to be expected after 26 years, etc. I drive this car on the freeway in california traffic and have no doubt it is ready to drive cross country tomorrow. The car is almost unbelieveably quick for how much power it has, the engine is rated at only 145hp but this thing is so light it feels like twice that. This car pisses off lots of newer car owners since they cant leave it in the dust. If you are not familiar with track worthy cars please be warned, the ride is rough on normal rides due to the stiff suspension and wheel/tire combo.

Asking $6200 OBO. serious offers only, no joyrides without cash in hand.


I will take off $800 if you do not want the BBS rims, in which case i will put brand new tires on the steelies so that it is ready to drive cross country. 

I will take off an additional $400 if you do not want the extras listed above, $1200 off if you dont want those or the rims. 

So without the BBS rims and extras i am willing to start at $5k OBO!!!

$500 non-refundable deposit via Paypal is due within 24 hours of winning. Full payment is due within 1 week of winning, cash is preferred. If you wish to pay with cashiers check, money order, etc you will have to come spend time and go to the bank with me to make sure it clears and all. 

I am of course willing to work with any shipper you need, or i can also pick you up at the Oakland Airport free of charge. Please remember full payment is due in 1 week, this means a short notice plane ticket on your part if you are not close! 

Cheers!

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).
